Glossy Eyelids

Glossy eyelids. Ever heard of them? The high fashion industry has yet again produced another makeup trend that has crept into our hearts. To my surprise, this isn’t a new trend, but it has resurfaced and regained popularity. Even celebrities, like Kylie Jenner, have contributed their share. Thankfully, the trend has been distilled into a wearable form that simply entails gliding lip gloss over your eyelids.

Brands like Milk Makeup created an ‘eye vinyl’ that has the same effect. Mac has a similar product too. It all depends on what look you’re going for and the price you’re willing to pay. I use a Charlie lip gloss that’s super glossy and doesn’t crease. The look is so versatile – you can wear it bare or over matte and cream shadows. Whenever the gloss starts to pleat in your eyelid crease, a simple dab or two with your fingertip will suffice. If you do recreate this look share it with me on Instagram or Twitter – I’d love to see it. Interested in some inspiration? Check out this Pinterest link.
